Now, sadly, Pittsburgh has also voted to leave TEC. I found this little group that is support for those who wish to stay: http://www.facebook.com/home.php...
Where does the money go that is donated to this group? How is it being given to those who are doing the work? :-)

The brackets are set, the NCAA tournament bids are out -- this year Episcopalians for Global Reconciliation invites you to add a little purpose to your picking. We call it March Gladness.
March Gladness combines two of our favorite things -- Making Poverty History and the NCAA Basketball Tournament. Here's how it works. Like your regular NCAA pool, you fill out your tournament bracket -- picking each game in the field of 65 right up to the championship game. Like your regular pool it costs a little to get in. Like your regular pool, the people who do the best picking the games win the pot.
Here's where Madness turns to Gladness:
*Instead of an entry fee, there is a small donation ($10).
*Along with your bracket(s) you designate a nonprofit (must be an official 501(c)3) whose work contributes to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals that you will be picking for.
*Instead of the winners taking home the pot, all money raised will be given to the designated MDG-related organizations.
Everyone has fun and it's all for a great cause -- God's mission of global reconciliation and making poverty history! And you can do it all right now from the comfort of your computer.
To enter, just go to our Cause page - http://apps.facebook.com/causes/... -- and follow the instructions. All entries must be received by tipoff on Thursday.
... and forward this to as many people as you can. The more entries, the more fun, the more $ going to Make Poverty History!
Christ's peace,

I have donated but not in funds; in Episcopal "stuff" that congregations need to carry on the true mission of the Gospel in San Joaquin, yes!!! You are all so very much loved and upheld in Christ. Remember that He is our peace, and He will not turn from you but bring you into a fuller Christian life than you have ever known before. God bless you all. God bless the true Church Episcopal.
